A group of community volunteers in Daveyton took their frustrations of not having been paid for seven months out on Deputy President Cyril Ramaphosa during a World AIDS Day event.

An irate crowd told Deputy President Cyril Ramaphosa and a delegation of ministers to “voetsek’ at a World Aids Day event in Daveyton on Thursday.

As Ramaphosa took to the podium to address the crowd, they start chanting “voetsek”, News24 reported.

The ire stems from the fact that workers who help HIV infected youth had apparently not been paid for months.

News24 reported that placards with “7 months without pay”, “Voetsek to the minimum wage” and “We want our money now” were seen at the event.

Ramaphosa held his nerve, though, and started his address amidst the booing and hoohaa. News24 said as soon as he started speaking and telling the crowd that the government was “in the process” of attending to to the minimum wage bill, the crowd started cheering.
